Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean if Walmart's 997 shows "Rejected"?

A rejected 997 (code R) means Walmart's system found errors in your EDI file and did not process it. Check the AK304 error codes to see what failed (missing data, invalid segments, control number issues). Fix the errors and resend the file immediately to avoid compliance issues.

Do I need to respond to Walmart 997 acknowledgments?

No, the 997 is informational only - you don't send a response. However, you should monitor 997s closely. If you receive rejections, you must fix your EDI files and resend. Consistent 997 rejections can impact your Walmart supplier scorecard and lead to EDI compliance reviews.
